Tofferer may be moving to Alaska right now. The board seems pretty dead at the moment. You might be right about dues but I do not think it would stop trolls. I really do not have too much time myself anymore. But welcome aboard matety!

The National Capitalist Party will be a dues paying membership and I don't think $12.00 a year is too much. Now that I am retired I cannot afford to support an organization all by myself.
Be very careful. Be sure that the non-profit / tax status of CFPA is 100% in order and be sure to organize the accounts so that you are in full legal compliance, and; published to the membership quarterly.
Transparency is key.
A spending plan / program will also have to be devised and implemented.
Organization, planning, implementation, control & reporting. All these functions are vital and need to be addressed before we start collecting money. There are fiduciary, accounting and legal issues involved and we could quickly get enmeshed with the IRS and the Feds, who are very likely hostile to the CFPA.
Definitely proceed, but with all due precaution.
My suggestion would be to take a page from the Muzzies and incorporate separately as a RELIGIOUS CONGREGATION in order to take the full tax benefits. Sometimes we can learn from the enemy.
